Perhaps this belongs on the legal board, or a completely different site, but here goes.
Oregon has a law that allows doctor prescribed marijuana use. There are provisions that limit how much you can have and how many plants someone can grow. You gota get a doctor to prescribe use of MJ, you have to get a card from the state and pay an annual fee. Blah , blah blah..
My question is, how does the law treat the actual transaction of obtaining the medical MJ. Is there specific (or tacit) acknowledgement of $$ for MJ?
I for one am very pleased and on the other hand very surprised that Oregon has this law on the books. Not that they passed the legislation on it, I think this issue should have been decided in the Doctor and patients favor years ago.
If my memory is accurate we tried something similar in California a little while ago.The measure passed, but the Feds, ahh yes those gracious and charming Feds said that this is against Federal law and that they will persue this to its defeat.
How is it that Oregon is getting away with it? Again, i think Its wonderful but How?
Just give em time, once the DEA has had its share of small hollow victories in CA, they may focus on Oregon, or maybe Hawaii. Who knows? The medical marijuana issue will continue to be cloudy, pardon the pun, until such time as the Feds allow it to exist.
Most every provision is superceded by Federal statute. We need some real "compassionate conservatives" to get the DEA to butt out.
In the case of weed, states should to be able to regulate it individually.
The laws on marijuana are outdated and based on "pop" science of the day.
They knew as much about the effects of marijuana back then, as Richard Nixon knew about the Grateful Dead.
